[QUOTE=Sardonus;35086247]How can you hate a guy who very clearly has a smiley face emblazoned on his skin[/QUOTE] Fuck. I can't take him seriously now.

Did anyone else love the music on [sp]Mars[/sp]? It felt so sci-fi and mysterious.
Fun fact about the ending Buzz Aldrin [sp]voices the Grandfather[/sp]

I was actually a little disappointed with one of the cutscenes on [sp]the Rachni planet.[/sp] [sp]I decided to help the Rachni Queen escape, and then Grunt went and stayed behind to hold the reaper-rachni off while you escaped. When it looked like a a suicide mission for Grunt, I was actually really impressed with the story telling, that you had to sacrifice a friend to save the Rachni race. I thought it was a really wonderful cutscene, and death. And then it got ruined by having Grunt survive. Yeah, it's nice to have another party member option, but it just ruined the moment. I kinda wish games would just kill off important characters like that every so often.[/sp]

I think that would've been an awesome ending for Grunt's character. Dying in a really big fight using his Krogan's awesome power. That was a worthy death scene. Legion's however left much to be desired.[/sp]
[sp]I keep seeing people talk about what would happen to Shepard for Mass Effect 4. I remember reading somewhere that this will be Shepard's last game in Mass Effect (because in almost all the endings he dies), but it's not the end of the series, there will be more iterations of the series, but the 'Shepard Saga' is over.[/sp]

I forget what makes the difference deciding that though.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Lexinator;35086939]Everyone on multilayer are dicks im an infiltrator so i go hide they follow and reveal my position[/QUOTE] Last match I did with people was horrible. We were doing bronze against the geth(easiest thing in the world, I know), but when you have to run around to those 4 upload/hacking terminal things. They grouped together while I ran around doing them, the only problem is that they never bothered to revive each other... and they were all right next to each other in the same room. But then again, before that I was the only person reviving them :/ Oh yeah, they also decided to kill all the geth I sabotaged instead of letting them help fight the geth.

[QUOTE=Craig Willmore;35087068]Fun fact about the ending Buzz Aldrin [sp]voices the Grandfather[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Who is the grandfather supposed to be? I've seen people talk about seeing the name if you have subtitles on, but I am far too burnt out to sit through that ending again right now.[/sp]

[sp]The Reaper fight on Rannoch is possibly the worst designed moment in the series. The targeting laser takes about FUCKING CENTURIES to lock on The Reaper never stops firing the laser, and it's random to tell when it's out of range The reaper literally never stops Shepard gets tired and weary and dies by touching it And it never checkpoints you even though you have to bomb it like 3 times [/sp]
People have trouble with [sp]the Reaper on Rannoch? How, just casually sprint off to the side. And then STAND STILL. If you move it takes ages to lock on, standing still it goes very, very fast.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Feuver;35087229][sp]If Grunt wasn't loyal in ME2, he dies if you save the rachni queen. [/sp][/QUOTE] Speaking of that, [sp]I was REALLY disappointed in the lack of Rachni screentime. ...I mean, really? I saved the most dangerous hivemind bug species in the galaxy, who almost single-handedly wiped out the citadel races, and now they're repaying that debt by contributing a pathetic 100 points to an engineering project? I was expecting thousands of their alien bug ships ships to surprise warp-in during the final climactic battle in a gratifying Ender's Game moment. Instead... nothing. Not even any screen time.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Sardonus;35087262][sp]The Reaper fight on Rannoch is possibly the worst designed moment in the series.[/sp][/QUOTE] Just roll from side to side dude, it wasn't that difficult. It was boring as shit, but it wasn't a god damn rubik's cube.
You fucking serious? I still can't make the last persuade choice damn it.

With the time the queen had to escape she could've made at least several thousand fresh soldiers to fight against the reapers if not millions.[/sp]
Instead we get the amazing power of [sp]a few workers[/sp].
[sp]WHAT THE FUCK >Save the Geth, lose the Quarians >Kill Geth, Save quarians THAT'S FUCKING BRUTAL BIOWARE YOU EXPECT ME TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THEM? NO. FUCK YOU. Moments ago... I would've chose geth no problem. BUT FUCK YOU, ONCE I SAW TALI STEP FOOT ON RANNOCH I CAN'T DO IT. HOW DO I SAVE THEM BOTH?[/sp]

[QUOTE=Conro101;35087366][sp]Use Paragon or Renegade. I'm sorry, but no matter what you do, you'll lose something.[/sp][/QUOTE] There's no prompt, there's no prompt! I only have 2 options WHAT THE FUCKKK
[QUOTE=Conro101;35087366][sp]Use Paragon or Renegade. I'm sorry, but no matter what you do, you'll lose something.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]I didn't lose anything. I got both species to survive and work together. [/sp]
Also, idea. [sp]Since Paragon Shepard is like 'canon' Shepard, does that mean if you choose Control, that Shepard becomes the new Catalyst?[/sp]
[QUOTE=Sardonus;35087371]There's no prompt, there's no prompt! I only have 2 options WHAT THE FUCKKK[/QUOTE] You're likely lacking on the points necessary to have the options available.
[QUOTE=N7;35087382]Also, idea. [sp]Since Paragon Shepard is like 'canon' Shepard, does that mean if you choose Control, that Shepard becomes the new Catalyst?[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]Probable, but we don't get the opportunity of it explained [/sp]
